Silver/Silver Chloride Electrode
The Silver/Silver Chloride Electrode is a type of reference electrode commonly used in electrochemical measurements. It consists of a silver wire coated with a layer of silver chloride, which creates a stable and well-defined electrochemical potential. This electrode is often used in pH meters and other analytical devices due to its reliability and ease of use.
When immersed in an electrolyte solution, the silver chloride can undergo a reversible reaction, allowing the electrode to maintain a constant potential. This property makes the Silver/Silver Chloride Electrode essential for accurate measurements in various scientific and industrial applications, including voltammetry and potentiometry.
